Outside Pucheng in Qizhou, in the camp of King Pingnan.
King Pingnan raised his wine glass high and shouted loudly: "Today we won another victory. Brothers, please raise your wine glasses and pay tribute to our general Xing Daorong!"
Xing Daorong was sitting on the first seat to the right of King Pingnan. Hearing this, he stood up with a blush on his face.
"To the great general!"
All the soldiers present stood up and drank the wine in their glasses.
King Pingnan smiled slightly, looked at Xing Daorong and said: "Daorong, I am really lucky to have you. Then Jiang Wei is now hiding in Pucheng and does not dare to show his face, hahaha!"
After Dong Yun successfully transported grain and grass from Chuanzhou, King Pingnan's suspicion of Xing Daorong was dispelled.
In addition, Xing Daorong has been victorious in several battles in the past few days, and has won several conflicts with Jiang Wei's army.
Although there was no great result, the morale of Jiang Wei's army was greatly damaged, and Jiang Wei only dared to huddle in the city.
This made King Pingnan's love for Xing Daorong reach its peak. He and Xing Daorong slept on the same bed and ate at the same table every day, and were inseparable.
"Thanks to the prince's promotion, Daorong is where he is today. Daorong, here's a drink to the prince!" Xing Daorong filled a glass of wine and said gratefully to King Pingnan.
"good!"
The two looked at each other and drank at the same time.
Xing Daorong wiped his lips and continued: "Your Majesty, that kid Jiang Wei only dares to hide in Pucheng now. Pucheng's defenses are strong. If we attack the city rashly, our army will probably suffer heavy casualties!"
Hearing this, King Pingnan also frowned, and this was indeed what he was worried about.
Although he claims to have an army of 500,000, Kong Wu has already allocated 100,000 to his side, and now he only has about 400,000 troops.
Jiang Wei's troops were no less than his, so a direct attack on the city would obviously be an egg against a stone.
Thinking of this, King Pingnan sighed and said: "I think so too. After all, the troops are still not enough. Why don't I transfer another 200,000 troops from southern Xinjiang?"
After all, Southern Xinjiang is his hometown. Although the barbarians have surrendered to him, there is more than one barbarian tribe in the south, so he has to leave 300,000 troops in Southern Xinjiang to prevent the small countries in the south from having any evil intentions.
"My lord, you don't have to be like this!" Xing Daorong shook his head quickly.
Grandma, if you ask you to mobilize another 200,000 people, how will I complete the task assigned to me by the master?
"Then do you have any good ideas?" King Pingnan frowned.
"To be honest, the general has a plan here!" Xing Daorong said with a smile.
"Oh? Tell me quickly!" King Pingnan suddenly became interested.
Xing Daorong smiled slightly and said seriously: "The general has already sent people to investigate. There is a mountain stretching for hundreds of miles on the border between Qizhou and Qinzhou. There is a mountain road on the mountain that can lead directly to Qinzhou City!"
"You mean to attack Qinzhou?"
"That's right!"
Xing Daorong nodded: "Then Yang Xun sent so many soldiers and horses in Qizhou, he must have wanted to fight us to the death in Qizhou, but we didn't get what he wanted. We only need to send a barbarian army to pretend to attack Pucheng and hold Jiang Wei back. The prince and the general led 200,000 elite troops from the mountain road to Qinzhou City!"
"After we capture Qinzhou City, we will march into Chunzhou with lightning speed. By then, we will have the capital at our fingertips!"
Hearing this, King Pingnan was also a little moved. If he could really attack Qianjing City, the empress would be in his hands. Then he would be the one to control the emperor and rule the world, not Yang Xun!
Maybe it’s not a bad idea for him to proclaim himself emperor on the spot!
And as long as he captured Qianjing City, he would turn around and attack Qizhou, attacking from both sides with the barbarian army. No matter how strong Jiang Wei was, he would not be able to resist it.
"But I heard that Qinzhou just fell into the hands of Yang Xun. Yang Xun should have prepared many troops and horses in Qinzhou, and the Xuanjia Army should also be there." King Pingnan touched his chin and said in deep thought.
"My lord, there is no need to worry. The general has sent people to find out clearly. The Huns are in turmoil. Yang Xun has transferred the Xuanjia Army away. Only Zhao Yun's tens of thousands of Bai'er troops are left in Qinzhou. The general Zhao Yun also recognizes this. He is an unknown young general, brave but without any strategy. He has never experienced any battles, so he is nothing to be afraid of!" Xing Daorong waved his hands and said nonchalantly.
King Pingnan frowned. He knew about the civil strife in the Huns. It made sense for Yang Xun to send away the Xuanjia Army at this time. However, King Qin fell into Yang Xun's trap and the entire army was annihilated. He didn't want to leave. The old path of King Qin.
"Are you sure that the Xuanjia Army has really returned to Beiyan?"
"The general dared to guarantee his life and told the truth. A fellow villager from the general fled to Xiangzhou in the early years and served in the Xiangzhou army. He saw with his own eyes the Xuanjia army passing through Xiangzhou and heading north. There is still a letter here from the general! "Xing Daorong said, taking out a letter from his arms.
King Pingnan took it and read it carefully. The handwriting in the letter was crooked, and the strokes seemed to be put together. At first glance, it was written by a rough man with no education.
Xing Daorong said that this man was from his hometown and served in the army. If the handwriting was neat, King Pingnan might be suspicious, but after seeing the crooked handwriting, King Pingnan was already convinced.
Seeing that King Pingnan was still hesitating, Xing Daorong quickly raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Yang Xun went to Dongyu to fight against the Ni people. This is our best opportunity to sneak attack Qinzhou and Qianjing City. This opportunity must not be missed. Please, Your Majesty Order!"
"Please give the order, Your Majesty!"
Other generals also stood up one after another. At this time, everyone had excitement on their faces. If they could really break into Qianjing City, they would be the founding heroes of the country and have a bright future!
"Your Majesty, if what Daorong said is even the slightest bit false, Your Majesty can behead me at any time!" Xing Daorong said, kneeling down directly, his eyes burning and his eyes red.
"Your Majesty, it is very difficult for the army to invade Pucheng. A sneak attack on Qinzhou is our only chance. Your Majesty, those who achieve great things must have the courage to make a desperate move. Then the King of Qi and the King of Qin are too indecisive. If they can be decisive, Why would Yang Xun occupy Qianjing City? Your lord, don’t hesitate any longer!"
King Pingnan immediately clenched his fists when he looked at Xing Daorong's sincere eyes and demeanor as if he was ready to die.
Yes, he, King Pingnan, has never lacked courage. Otherwise, he would not have rebelled just because he said it, nor would he have been victorious all the way. He should not retreat at this time!
What's more, he has tiger generals like Xing Daorong and 200,000 elites. He doesn't believe that he can't capture a small Qinzhou city!
Thinking of this, King Pingnan immediately stood up with his hands behind his back and said loudly: "Dong Yun, you sit in the camp and command the barbarian army to pretend to attack Pucheng. I personally lead 200,000 elites and General Xing to attack Qinzhou!"
Don’t trust those you employ, and don’t trust those you suspect. Xing Daorong has used his strength to gain the trust of King Pingnan. In the end, King Pingnan still chose to believe in Xing Daorong.
After issuing the military order, King Pingnan immediately patted Xing Daorong on the shoulder and said, "Daorong, it's up to you whether I can reach the sky in one step this time!"
